@willyvereb: let's see i think it was lost somewhere along the line of zeon total destruction in the 4 years between 0079-0083, zeon pilot begin to find way of shooting back against some amuro copycat who relied on pattern

and the amuro combat data is used three times more 1. one of the f90 is loaded with perfected amuro data from CCA 2. Amakusa ( the one from crossbone) used amuro BRAIN(a clone) for a controller 3.Amakusa (from Victory gundam, totally different) again used anothe amuro clone brain

I still believe zeon had better and more variety in tech and better overall pilots and the only reason the feds won was because of their superior resources and zeon needed quick decisive total victory and they could not get it.

Any way I still think amuro has the edge here, souske is sure not as good pilot as char and amuro beats char even when their suits are around the same level. The newtype thing will be the dessisive factor in this battle.
